Ten thousand acres can already be counted as

currant bushes and young trees stripped OF

CHIEF COLOROW.
The Old Ute Reprobate Finally Captured
After Friendly Campaign.

GREEN RIVER, Col, July An Indian cam
paign which will hardly be described in the
official reports has just ended in the apprehen-
sion of Colorow, a sub-chief of the Utes, who
has been making nuisance of himself for the

most conceited savage on the continent and
there is nothing that he fears except cowboys.
He is the individual who wan ted a cannon sent

1t was not until the cowboys lent a hand that
the old villain was in any great danger of capt

followers, all as exaggerated types of the noble

around in the White and Green river country

chinese Miners Murdered.

PORTLAND. Ore, July Recent reports
from Idaho to the effect that number of
Chinese mining camps scattered along the Snake
river have been ralded. It is reported that there
are from fifty sixty Chinese miners on the
Oregon side of the Snake river. about forty miles
above Lewiston, and from the many mutilated
remains that have floated down the river it is
pected either Indians whites have raided the
camp and murdered most, if not all, of the Celes-
tials. Every few days bodies have been discov-
cred lodged IN the stream, and in most cases the
remains were found to have been stabbed or
shot The general impression is that the muir
ders were committed by whites, who killed the
Chinese and robbed them Of their gold dust.
The Chinese residents of Lewiston /. T., are
much exercised over the reports and the dIscov-
cry of the murdered bodies of their countrymen.
They have sent up several scouts to make in
vestigation of the matter. They also are said to
be in correspondence with the Chinese minister
at Washington regarding the outrages. Some
of the Idaho papers calling loudly Gov
ernor Pennoyer, of Oregon. to make some effort
to discover the perpetrators of these murders by
offering rewards. Among the Chinese the i'm
preston prevails that there is an organized band
of anti Monaghan vigilantes raiding the placer
mining region.

THE FIDELITY BANK.
Harper's Sensational Statements-Conditf
of the Broken Bank Not Yet Known.

of the Broken Bank Not Yet Known.
Cincinnati special
regarding the narrow escape from destruction of
the Third National Bank of this city and of
his rescue of it by coming to the front with
1926, 900 causes considerable comment in this
city. and is generally believed to be true. There
are various rnmors and impressions that Harper
will say more that he is a conse-
Quence of finding to 60 on his bond.
Thus far no one whom Harper charges with be-
ing implicated in tho Handy deal has been found
TO refute the story, although President Hearne,
of the Third National, insists that his bank has
not been concerned in any wheat deal since his
connection with it. the general impression
here touching Harper's moral standard is that it
Is a low one since his idea of honesty. he ex-
presses it, is in the success or failure of specu-
lation.
An interesting feature in the case that has
been attracting considerable attention of late is
Miss Josie Holmes, who up to the time of the
failure Mr.. Harper's confidential book keep
err. 1t was said that the morning the bank closed
Miss Holmes was seen to open one OF the safe
deposit boxes and extract a large amount of
money therefrom. Miss Holmes streuously de-
MED this, and was to-day called before Receiver
Armstrong. who is inclined to believe her story.
Your correspondents called on Receiver Arm
strong the bank to night, with a view. if pos
sible. of ascertaining the condition of Affairs in
the Fidelity and what probable per cent. would
be paid the depositors An idea of the chaotic
condition of the banks affairs may be gained
from Receiver Armstrong; assertion that it will
be all of one month before he will be able to ar
rive at any idea of the banks assets and iabili
ties, what per cent Will be paid the depositors.
Mr.. Armstrong said that out of 1900 individual
and 600 bank accounts, ali Of which remain open,
of them have yet been touched. Since
Mr.. Snyder turned over the affairs of the bank
MIR. Armstrong had been busy with anxious de-
positors, and he has had but two good days work
out of the whole time He said that the bank
did large collection business. most of which
was scattered from Maine to Texas. and it would
be some time, certainly not within thirty days,
before these accounts could be Strengthened up.
He has no idea, has not arrived at a list of
the papers, securities, and stocks that could be
converted into cash, neither is ne certain of just
how much money remains in the vaults of the
bank. Until this is learned Mr. Armstrong says
that any estimate of what per cent. will be paid
depositors is idle conjecture. The depositors
they will receive about 25 per cent. Anxious
depositors continue to worry the receiver and
clerks with questions to when they will be
paid, but they are all answered alike: Just

THE Journal is inclined to congratulate
itself and its readers on the excellence of the
reports of the music teachers convention
which it has been enabled to give this week.
Recognizing, as,apparently no other paper in
the city has done, the importance of this
convention, and the magnitude of the work
which the association seeks to accomplish,
the Journal secured the services of competent
musicians as critics and reporters, and gave
literally of its space to accounts of the pro-
ceedings. With the result there is every
reason to be satisfied. The criticisms and
comments on the musical performances are
entitled to weight as being the dispassionate
Judgment of trained musicians, while the
detailed reports of the discussions at the
business meetings are more complete than
will probably be found in any strictly musical
journal, while having the recommendation of
appearing earlier. The Journal desired to do
full justice to the convention, and, aided by
the accomplished writer's whose names are
appended to the reports feels that it has done
so-an opinion which it has reason to know
is shared by large number of the members
of the M. T.. N. A.

selection could have been made. It is not al
together pleasant place to be in hot weather,
but desperate cases require desperate remedies.
Counsel for the defense evidently hope for a
favorable decision from Judge Gresham 1t
remains to be seen whether their hope is well
founded or not. They base it on Judge
Gresham's decision in the Perkins case, but
there are points of difference in the two cases
which may lead to a different decision in this.
Pending the decision Mr.. Coy will remain in
